Overview

The Zimbra email system used by your organization or service provider is a paid Network Edition license (ask your administrator if you are not sure)

Your administrator has enabled mobility on your account

Assuming these requirements are met, you configure Zimbra just like you would a Microsoft Exchange account on your mobile device (this is the name used for any ActiveSync-based service. For more information about ActiveSync, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActiveSync).
In order to complete this set up you need to know the following:

Installation and Setup

3. Tap Add account. Note: After you have performed the installation process and your Zimbra account is installed, it will display on this screen and you can edit the account from here.

4. Enter your Email address and Password to add an account:

Email address. This is your company email address, for example user@company.net.

Password. This is your Zimbra password, which is the same one used for the Zimbra Web Client.

Click Next.Note: ZCS 7.x does not support auto-discovery. If you want to perform auto-discovery, you need to enter the server name on the Server Settings screen. (See the next step)

5. Enter server settings.

Domain\Username. This is your company's email server domain. For example, mail.company.net... the same base URL you type in the browser for the Zimbra Web Client. (For a simple explanation of a domain, see http://computer.howstuffworks.com/dns2.htm).

Username. This is the Zimbra username of your account, the same one you use to log in to the Zimbra Web Client. For example, user@company.net.

Server. This is your Zimbra server. (This is either your mailbox server or proxy server. Ask your administrator for this information).

Use SSL. Your administrator can tell you more about SSL and if you need to use a secure connection. Typically if you access your Zimbra Web Client using a URL beginning with https:// then you want to check SSL. (For a simple explanation of SSL, see http://computer.howstuffworks.com/encryption4.htm).

Click Next.
